We dug ourselves a big hole tonight. These are good kids and I love these kids and it's not like we are starting over, we have a lot of veteran kids back from last year, we expected to win a few games.

We played solid defense and we picked up our offense, especially at the line with a 12 of 17 effort. Our guys came back well, but we need to keep working and improving.

Catching the ball with a fatigued brain, you don't really understand. When your brain gets tired, you don't really know what to do with the ball. And you kind of travel or take a bad shot, or just lose the ball. That hasn't happened a lot this year.
